D. Recalling the role of King Al Sharif Hussein Bin Ali in protecting,
and taking care of the holy sites in Jerusalem and in the restoration of
the holy sites since 1924; recalling the uninterrupted continuity of
this role by His Majesty King of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, who is
a descendant of Al Sharif Hussein Bin Ali; recalling that the Bay’ah
(oath of allegiance) according to which Al Sharif Hussein Bin Ali held
the custodianship of the Jerusalem holy sites, which custodianship was
affirmed to Al Sharif Hussein Bin Ali by the people of Jerusalem and
Palestine on March 11, 1924; and recalling that the Custodianship of the
holy sites of Jerusalem has devolved to His Majesty King Abdullah II
ibn Al Hussein;

and specifically this:

which custodianship was
affirmed to Al Sharif Hussein Bin Ali by the people of Jerusalem and
Palestine on March 11, 1924

Whether or not the Holy Sites were included in the 'disengagement decision of 1988, - which only related to Jordan and the PLO, as the Palestinian Authority did not exist then, and therefore, that is a different legal consideration, - the 1994 Jordan-Israel Peace Treaty contains this:

ARTICLE 9PLACES OF HISTORICAL AND RELIGIOUS
SIGNIFICANCE

Each party will provide freedom of access to places of religious and
historical significance.

In this regard, in accordance with the Washington Declaration, Israel
respects the present special role
of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in Muslim Holy shrines in Jerusalem. When
negotiations on the
permanent status will take place, Israel will give high priority to the
Jordanian historic role in these
shrines.

The Parties will act together to promote interfaith relations among the
three monotheistic religions,
with the aim of working towards religious understanding, moral commitment,
freedom of religious
worship, and tolerance and peace.

The Holy Sites are very much included, as "Muslim Holy shrines", but exactly what are they and where and what about Jewish shrines, especially the Temple Mount, which shares much, but not all, of the area the Haram courtyards do, are unclear issues. Is Jordan violating the treaty?Does not Israel also have a responsibility to assure access and worship there?

Does that Bayah hold, also given that the so-called Caliphate lasted from that March to ... October. Is that a sufficient time to grant any sort of continuity?

What happened in October?

As noted:

A last attempt at restoring the caliphal office and style with ecumenical recognition was made by al-Husayn ibn `Ali al-Hashimi, King of Hejaz and Sharif of Mecca, who assumed both on 11 March 1924 and held them until 3 October 1924, when he passed the kingship to his son `Ali ibn al-Husayn al-Hashimi, who did not adopt the caliphal office and style.

So, the Caliphate ended. No more patronage of the Holy Sites in Jerusalem? Is this Bayah a mere ploy?Another Arab point of view on the matter is expressed so:

For Jordan, the dilemma is in maintaining a balance between its
historic obligations towards Jerusalem and the 1994 peace treaty with
Israel. In fact, it is more of a test of endurance. In April this
year, Jordan and Palestine signed an agreement under which the
Palestinian side “reaffirmed” the status of King Abdullah as the
custodian of the holy sites in Jerusalem.

Aside from the
consideration of “who is stronger than who,” Jordan is definitely
unwilling to terminate the Wadi Araba Peace Treaty with Israel and at
the same can not remain silent on Israel’s assaults on al-Aqsa Mosque
and its violations of the 1994 agreement in which the kingdom is
stipulated as the official custodian of Jerusalem’s holy sites. It is
such a big diplomatic challenge.

Wait, has the treaty "stipulated [Jordan] as the official custodian of Jerusalem’s holy sites"?

Of course not. Just a "special role". Perhaps as an observer, or a supervisor of engineering works, or as a payer of the Waqf employees salaries. But not sovereignty. And not the term "custodian".This view takes an opposing stand:

...The Treaty suggests that Arab rage and Israel Police restrictions are contrary to the spirit—if not the exact language—of an International Peace Agreement....All restrictions against Jews on the Temple Mount are contrary to the
terms of a signed Peace Agreement. Discrimination of Jews at Jerusalem
Holy Sites is a Treaty violation.

Article 9 also suggests that
Arab riots over the Temple Mount could be illegal. Certainly, lawyers
will have to decide if a signed international Treaty establishes
enforceable law. They will have to determine if a violation of the terms
of such an Agreement should be called ‘illegal.’But until then, Arab rage should be condemned by all.

Jordan is an interested party. But its rights, and demands, are limited.

And if it can't even protect its own officials at the site accompanying a Fatah person, as happened recently, why should Israel respect it?

State Minister for Media Affairs, Mohammad al-Momani, renewed Jordan's warning that repeated Israeli attacks and unilateral measures on Muslim
and Christian holy shrines as well as settlement policies threaten to
undermine the peace process.
The minister, who is also government spokesman, stressed that Israel's
practices against holy places are rejected and condemned and run
contrary to international conventions and treaties, saying Israel should
stop its ongoing violations of the holy city.
He warned that Israeli occupation authorities insistence to allow Jewish
extremists to break into the Al-Aqsa Mosque is inflaming Muslim
passions and could touch off religious conflict.
